Don't know him, what did he do?

Yea Dell machines can refuse third party batteries even if they're physically identical

It's worth checking for that

That would be cool, maybe cost to keep the CO2 levels maintained and leak proof? I'd be curious to learn more about CO2 filled enclosures. I think some rare books are kept in them?

Another alternative could be to flood the room with CO2 when an issue is detected. But I guess that's just fire suppression again

I usually use NoStupidQuestions as the catch all for when I don't have something better. We have a few communities for that

Appreciate your team being open to thinking about it :)

You could even ask it as a meta askLemmy question

I'm not familiar with how I'd set that up. I usually find an existing RSS feed and follow it

edit: haven't used Google Alerts in a while. Looks like you can have it send an email without tying it to your account. That should work fine

Newsy bits might be

  • people don't know where their wrecked cars go
  • EVs are old enough that repairs are a new concern. We might want to learn how to do the repairs locally
  • the story with the car asking from help from across the world is a fun human interest story

Also since it's in one place, you can build in detection and fire suppression measures.

Could be as simple as having the tools nearby (fire hydrant style), or as complex as automating the checks and suppression (cut off power, isolate the problem cells, spray em)

Yea, with a car you can't really use them once the range gets low enough

With this, a bunch of batteries can work together for much longer. You also don't need to worry about weight since they're in one place

There is one now lol: [email protected]

see the recent post on [email protected]

I’ve also seen other questions that, while not low effort necessarily, have made me wonder, “Wouldn’t this perhaps be better in a more specific community, or in a different style, like NoStupidQuestions?”

Yea I've seen a few of those too. Questions that are too specific to a particular app/program or a specific personal problem. Those don't really belong here

  • "How do I do X on program Y" (bad) vs. "What's your favourite program that does Z" (good)

Repetitive meme posts can get annoying, and mods should intervene in some cases, but I'd prefer if the rules were more open. It's hard to determine what is "low effort" and "thought-provoking", and Lemmy is small so further limiting content isn't that productive

Was this the post? https://lemmy.ca/post/9681692

I think people using this community are looking for something similar to AskReddit, and it's totally ok if you want to be different from that since the Fediverse allows for more communities to be made.

Personally, (and you don't need to run the community like this), I'm looking for a community for open-ended and discussion provoking questions, not necessarily thought-provoking questions. The stick one was fun and lead to fun discussion
